It's possible to trade profitably on the Forex, the nearly $2 trillion worldwide currency exchange market. But the odds are against you, even more so if you don't prepare and plan your trades. According to a 2014 Bloomberg report, several analyses of retail Forex trading, including one by the National Futures Association (NFA), the industry's regulatory body, concluded that more than two out of three Forex traders lose money.
This suggests that self-education and caution are recommended. Here are some approaches that may improve your odds of taking a profit.
Prepare Before You Begin Trading
Because the Forex market is highly leveraged -- as much as 50 to 1 -- it can have the same appeal as buying a lottery ticket: some small chance of making a killing. This, however, isn't trading; it's gambling, with the odds long against you.
A better way of entering the Forex market is to carefully prepare. Beginning with a practice account is helpful and risk-free. While you're trading in your practice account, read the most frequently recommended Forex trading books, among them
Currency Forecasting: A Guide to Fundamental and Technical Models of Exchange Rate Determination, by Michael R. Rosenberg is short, not too sweet and highly admired introduction to the Forex market.
Forex Strategies: Best Forex Strategies for High Profits and Reduced Risk, by Matthew Maybury is an excellent introduction to Forex trading.
The Little Book of Currency Trading: How to Make Big Profits in the World of Forex, by Kathy Lien is another concise introduction that has stood the test of time.
All three are available on Amazon. Rosenberg's book, unfortunately, is pricey, but it's widely available in public libraries. "Trading in the Zone: Master the Market with Confidence, Discipline and a Winning Attitude," by Mark Douglas is another good book that's available on Amazon, and, again, somewhat pricey, although the Kindle edition is not.
Use the information gained from your reading to plan your trades before plunging in. The more you change your plan, the more you end up in trouble and the less likely that elusive forex profit will end up in your pocket.
Diversify and Limit Your Risks
Two strategies that belong in every trader's arsenal are:
Diversification: Traders who execute many small traders, particularly in different markets where the correlation between markets is low, have a better chance of making a profit. Putting all your money in one big trade is always a bad idea.
Familiarize yourself with ways guaranteeing a profit on an already profitable order, such as a trailing stop, and of limiting losses using stop and limit orders. These strategies and more are covered in the recommended books. Novice traders often make the mistake of concentrating on how to win; it's even more important to understand how to limit your losses.
Be Patient
Forex traders, particularly beginners, are prone to getting nervous if a trade does not go their way immediately, or if the trade goes into a little profit they get itchy to pull the plug and walk away with a small profit that could have been a significant profit with little downside risk using appropriate risk reduction strategies.
In "On Any Given Sunday," Al Pacino reminds us that "football is a game of inches." That's a winning attitude in the Forex market as well. Remember that you are going to win some trades and lose others. Take satisfaction in the accumulation of a few more wins than losses. Over time, that could make you rich!
CAULIFLOWER BASED PIZZA – WITH MOZZARELLA AND BASIL
And here it is… Pizza that is also healthy and filled with vegetable goodness ?
Cauliflower based pizza, please stand up and take a bow.Alright, I’m not going to try and convince you that cauliflower based pizzas are better than regular, stoned-oven-baked, pizza-dough pizzas from you favourite pizzeria. Because, let’s get real for a second, walking home with a warm pizza box containing your favourite pizza with all that gooey cheese, those wonderful, colourful toppings, and that thin and crispy (or thick and dough-y, however you like it ) pizza base is just so gooooooood.
However, for a crazily healthy lunch, an alternative dinner option, for a snack (or for those on gluten free/ grain free diets) these cauliflower based pizzas are rockstars.Low carbs, low calories and yet packing a mighty nutritional punch….
INGREDIENTS:
FOR THE BASE:
- 1 Large head of Cauliflower, separated into florets (about 700g)
- 2 Eggs
- 80g Parmesan (optional)
- 1 1/2 Tbsp Dried herbs (of your choice, mixed herbs or even just oregano work great)
- Pinch of salt and Pepper to taste
TOPPINGS:
- 1 Cup of Roasted Red Pepper sauce *see note
- 100g fresh mozzarella, sliced
- handful of fresh basil leaves
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Place the cauliflower in a food processor and blitz until it resembles rice. Place into a pan of boiling water and simmer for several minutes or until cooked. Strain and allow to cool.
- In batches, place the cooked caulifour into a towel (or muslin cloth) and squeeze out as much excess water as you can. Just when you think you can’t squeeze any more, squeeze again, until the cauliflower becomes quite dry and comes together into a ball when squeezed.
- Meanwhile, place the 5 minute red pepper sauce into a pan and bring to the boil. turn down the heat to a gentle simmer and allow the sauce to reduce by half or until it takes on a thick, paste-like consistency
- Preheat you oven to 220°C/ 410°F
- In a bowl whisk together the eggs, parmesan cheese (if using), herbs and salt and pepper. Add the cauliflower and mix until well combined.
- On a lined baking tray, or pizza stone, spread out the cauliflower mixture in uniform thickness, and shape into desired Pizza shape. Press it light down with your fingers or the underside of a spoon
- Place in the oven for 35 minutes or until the edges and top are slightly browned. Remove from the oven. Spread over the Red Pepper sauce and top with mozzarella. Place back in the oven for 3 – five minutes or until the cheese has melted. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with fresh basil and serve.
NOTES:
- The Red pepper Sauce can be replaced with a few tablespoons of regular pizza sauce or even pesto.
